Rome – Pantheon, Navona, and Trevi Fountain!

Dear Commons Community,

My daughter Dawn Marie’s family (husband Bruce, children Michael and Ali) arrived yesterday to spend time  with us in Rome.  For the children’s first visit, we walked through the Pantheon, the Piazza Navona, and ended up at the Trevi Fountain.  The Pantheon is an iconic  2,000 year old structure with a domed roof built by Agrippa.  Originally a temple, it now functions as a church.  My grandchildren asked me several times if they used machines to build it.   The Piazza Navona is a favorite go-to place in Rome mainly because it is great for people-watching and to take in the street acts (singers,musicians, fire-twirlers, tumblers).  Trevi maintains its allure as one of the most beautiful fountains in the world.
